Default Shrockworks Bumper: Two More Weeks

I have the Shrockworks rock rails and love them. And I plan to eventually order the rear bumper. Right now, I have the front bumper with winch hoop on order--since Dec 17th. Kevin at Shrockworks says the laser cutter problem we've all heard about really set things back, but that mine will head to the powder coaters Wednesday, then back a week later and shipped to me. Maybe another two weeks. That will be sixteen weeks total, for those who are interested. I am giddy with anticipation. Why don't we have a "giddy with anticipation" emoticon, anyway?

My mid-width with hoop just arrived today (about an hour ago, according to my wife).

You mean you haven't left work to go check on it!
Tell the boss you're sick and need to go home...you know you want to go install that bumper!

So on a more serious note, once this problem is overcome I wonder if the wait will go back to 8 weeks or so?

Funny you should mention it. I'm actually leaving right now.

We are sorry for the delay...we have gotten on it, worked things out (and are continuing to). The wait should be reduced in the next month.

These are just some of the bumpers we've gotten through in the last few days... going to PC tomorrow

Great pic Nick! Looks to be about $9K worth of front bumpers in that first pic!

Glad to hear things are moving forward, I maybe ordering a stubby next month with my stimulus money!

As far as mid width bumpers go, I think Schrockworks is at the top. Dropkick, post a pic when you get it installed.
